    I have two memory RAM SO-DIMM in my two slot

    The two memory have the following characteristics:

    - 12800MHz
    - 4GB
    - DDR3L

    But the BIOS only reflects 1600MHz, why? What happened to the rest?

    12800 is MB/s bandwidth
    1600 is MT/s transfer rate
    two different measurements

    I tried running computers without swap and found that they crashed when
    the running programs used too much memory. Now I allocate 1 GB swap on
    the system drive during installation and enable the System Load Monitor
    applet in the Xfce to watch swap usage during operation. If the
    programs use up memory and start to swap, I can do something about it.
